I just use the original DNSServer example sketch which is Captive Portal Advanced. I have done connecting to the AP but the page not loaded because it says "network connection is lost". This is the screenshot of the error popup.
?

Captive portals with the ESP8266 can be difficult. Some applications are "smart" and expect to see certain things before they let you access a captive portal. Different operating system platforms may require different tricks to get it to work. Basically having the ESP8266 provide the parts that the application is expecting to see.
Do a search for captive portal and the device type you are using. (Ipad ?)

It has been a couple of years since I played around with redirection, but I had it working here:

most difficult I encountered try to resolve some dns before they accept "internet" as connected and even try to access website.
